The c7800 is a combo unit. So having that and the XR500 is a little overkill since the XR500 is router with really great capabilities. It'll make the router part of the 7800 unnecessary. You could save yourself some money by returning the c7800 and getting the cm1000 instead.

I bought the XR500 and the C7800. Should I return the C7800 and get the CM1000?

Thanks
I'm doing that now, I'm returning the C7800 and getting the CM1000 so I can get upgrades as well? Now I can't wait to use the CM1000 with the XR500!
